Old-fashioned Peach Crisp is a simple yet indulgent dessert recipe that everyone will adore! Fresh peaches are baked to juicy perfection with cinnamon, sugar, and a buttery, rolled oat topping.

Ingredients

  • 8 heaping cups of peeled (thinly sliced peaches)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (divided)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon (divided)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 stick (½ cup salted butter, at room temperature)
  • 1 ¾ cup old-fashioned oats

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter an 8x8 baking pan, and set aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the peaches, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and salt together in a large bowl until well combined. Pour the peach mixture onto the prepared pan and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same large bowl, cream together the brown sugar, remaining ½ cup flour, butter, and remaining teaspoon of cinnamon until it forms a wet, clumpy mixture. Add the oats and stir to form a coarse mixture. (I usually do this with my hands.)

  4. 4

    Crumble the oats on top of the peaches in an even layer. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the oats start to turn a light golden color around the edges. Remove from the oven and let stand 10 minutes. 

  5. 5

    Serve warm, with vanilla ice cream if desired.
